The Klon KTR is a reissue of the legendary Klon Centaur overdrive pedal, designed by the original manufacturer, Bill Finnegan. It is a versatile pedal that can produce transparent boost to warm, rich overdrive tones, with a signature mid-range boost. The pedal is designed to overdrive the amp further into breakup, producing a lively and dynamic lead tone.
Key Features:
- Overdrive Mode: The pedal offers creamy overdrive tones with the Gain
control turned up, providing a wide range of overdriven sounds.
- Clean-boost Mode: With the Gain control at its minimum setting, the pedal
operates in clean-boost mode, offering enormous headroom without generating
its own distortion.
- Slide Switch: The pedal features a switch to choose between buffered output
or true-bypass output, allowing users to control the signal presence.
- Power Options: The KTR is powered by a regulated 9-volt power supply and
does not have the option for battery power. It is important not to exceed 9
volts to avoid damage to the circuitry.
- Warranty: The pedal comes with a three-year warranty for parts and labor,
provided there is no evidence of abuse or attempted modification.
